Cookie Love / Jean Hwang Carrant

Easy craving a sweet treat and stopping here today. So glad I did, the cookies are amazing. I got the Triple C and the Arthur, so so good. They have a wonderful assortment to choose from, I will have to keep going back to try them all. Incredible cookies!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The best cookie shop in Paris, hands down! These extraordinary cookies are the delicious result of a meeting between France, Asia, and the United States, a perfect fusion of cultures and flavors that makes Cookie Lover truly unique. Baked fresh daily using secret homemade recipes, the black sesame, mochi, and matcha cookies are soft, flavorful, and unforgettable. There’s a distinct Asian twist to each bite that elevates them far beyond your average cookie. Great for both kids and adults, this is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth. Even Pierre Hermé, world-renowned pastry chef and Best Pastry Chef in the World 2016, praised them, saying: “Thank you for your cookies, they were perfect, certainly the best I’ve ever had.” Enough said, go try them!

I have tried several éclairs and custard tarts (tartelettes à la crème pâtissière) in the two weeks I have been in Paris, and I was surprised that these cookies were the one pastry to not overdo the sugar, allowing all of the other flavors to shine. The caramel cookie was rich and smooth (my partner called it "beautiful and balanced"). The matcha one was nice and subtle ("the composition was perfect, so it transcended the sum of its parts"). The sesame seed one invoked childhood memories of beloved Thai desserts (my partner could only say, "wow, that's really good; like nothing I've had before"). And the chocolate one with Thai peppers had a pleasing aftertaste that lingered in my mouth as extraordinary chocolate does. Simply divine. Thank you, Jean!

Jean is the loveliest and these cookies are delightful. She has taken the simplicity of cookies from my childhood in America and elevated them to something refined and gastronomic by sourcing the highest quality ingredients. The salted caramel cookie has a surprising complexity of flavor and texture in every bite. Perfection!

This is a message for real cookie lovers: when visiting Paris one might wonder where to find the perfect cookie place, do not look further and pay a visit to Cookie love. Not only are the cookies exquisite (perfect texture with a strong firmness/melting ratio and a wide variety of tastes with high quality ingredients) but also Jean, the owner, is one of the nicest person on Earth, happy to share her passion for the delicious biscuits she bakes everyday for even more freshness. I tried 4 of them (classic choc chip/snickerdoodle/matcha oat and the iconic black sesame) and they all crushed it!

Jean was absolutely friendly and welcoming to her little shop. You could listen to her forever talking enthusiastically about her cookie story and the shop. She recommended the black sesame cookies (her signature) and that was like nothing else. Highly recommended,but bring your own coffee! 😅

Insanely good! Owner is really sweet too :)

Best cookie so far for me. What a great selection. Will definitely come back. Mochi black sesame cookie 🙈
